I'll have the car in next week for an inspection, and a software patch.

The owner claims he has solved the Vanos issue by replacing all cam sensors and realigning the cams...... and now goes thru BMW diagnosis without any errors - costed him $350 instead of $5000.... will be instresting to see if thats the whole story.

I'll snap a few pictures.

While waiting - enjoy a couple of pics on my M5 :-)
